Activities: Planning for Climate Change in Toronto

The following three activities invite you to explore climate change resilience and adaptation in your neighbourhood, investigate the effects of climate change on different people, and help to solve climate challenges by sharing your ideas for an environmentally sustainable Toronto. 

Your ideas will be shared with City of Toronto Planning staff as part of the Official Plan Review. Each activity will take about 30 minutes. You can do them alone, with a friend or family member, or as a class activity guided by your teacher.
